The light-colored Brazilian quartzite ranges in hue from light gray to white to eggshell tones with yellowish streaks. Whether as polygonal slabs, sheets with sawn edges, or in the hand-edged version, this stone exudes elegance in every form. It combines sophistication and lightness with outstanding technical properties such as slip resistance and resistance to de-icing salt.

Notes
This selection may also include slabs with yellow or pinkish tones. Therefore, the finished surface will not be purely white or gray. We recommend installing the stone on gravel or using synthetic resin, as the stone may discolor when installed in trass cement. The stone must not be grouted until it has dried completely; otherwise, discoloration may also occur.
Fine “hairline cracks” may occur during the production of hand-edged floor and polygonal slabs. These are natural and do not affect the technical properties. They therefore cannot
be the subject of a complaint.
Hand-edged standard-size slabs in accordance with DIN EN 1341:2012 Class 0, with a tolerance of up to +/- 2 cm.
Random length standard-size slabs with edges sawn in accordance with DIN EN 1341:2012 Class 1 in length and width
with a tolerance of up to +/- 3 mm.
